Rise Against – I Don’t Want To Be Here Anymore [VIDEO]

Did you know that every year, nearly 1.6 million people lose their lives due to violence? There were 1,800 shootings in Chicago last year alone. This unnecessary violence extends through the animal kingdom, as well, where 30,000 elephants were killed last year. Poachers use the ivory from elephants to help fund all sorts of awful things like terrorist networks and at this rate, elephants could be extinct in the next 11 years.

And if things couldn’t be any worse, 2000 children disappear each day, often in war-torn areas of the world. According to Rise Against‘s graphic new song, the world has only been at peace for 8% of our recorded history and like the hard-hitting song declares, “I Don’t Want To Be Here Anymore,” either.
